Ingredients
  • 2 oz. bacon, diced
  • 1 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 1 garlic clove, minced
  • 2 bunches mustard greens, about 3 lb. total, stemmed and coarsely chopped
  • 1 cup low-sodium chicken broth
  • 1/2 lemon
  • Salt and pepper

  2. Pour out all but 1 tbsp of the fat from the pan and reduce the heat to medium-low. Add the butter. When it has melted, add the garlic and sauté until fragrant (approx. 1 minute).
  3. Add the mustard greens and a generous pinch each of salt and pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, until the greens begin to wilt (approx. 3-4 minutes).
  4. Add the broth and cook, stirring occasionally, until the greens are tender but still bright green and the liquid reduces to a glaze (approx. 8-10 minutes).
  5. Transfer the greens to a warmed serving dish. Top with the crisp bacon and serve immediately.

The sweet and savory flavors of ginger and soy sauce balance well with the hint of spice from the mustard greens.[br][br][cap id=”attachment_9516″ align=”alignleft” width=”150″][url href=”undefined”][img src=”https://vonthunfarms.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/05/download-4-150×150.jpg” width=”150″ height=”150″ class=” size-thumbnail” title=”download”][/url]Photo Credit: Relish.com[/cap]
